If you love one cat you love every cat! He was so happy. I have a permanently guilty conscience and when I do an objectively good thing it carries me through all the the hard stuff. I’m sure he will remember me:)

They can take all my blood in exchange for that feeling. That’s gonna propel me all week

I know I’m thinking about it simplistically but the Trump family dynasty and their hangers-on have a lot of wealth that’s just figures in digital ledgers, right? What’s to stop someone on a computer from just wiping that away? Realistically, if you were able to put all their accounts at zero, what recourse would they have? I guess I just don’t understand modern banking.

Yeah it’s not Afghanistan but in Iran it’s subject to a lot of interpretation on the part of the police and if they want to harass you they can take you in for the tiniest slip of your head covering. It’s still horrible even if not as draconian.

Fair enough. One of my close friends is Iranian but lives in the US now and she spent a couple days in prison for not covering her hair properly so I guess I’m sensitive about it. My bad

They do detain, torture, and kill women who do not cover their hair completely and dress “modestly.” This is well-established fact.

The difference between you and me is that I’m talking about the oppression of women because I care and because it matters, and you are using it as a political talking point.

A woman singer Parastoo Ahmadi was just sentenced to 74 lashes for singing without hijab.

You guys act like this is a game and I’m so tired of it. I’m a woman. A woman is going to be publicly brutalized for singing in public without religious garb. It’s incredibly messed up that you guys can do whatever you want and hide behind Islamophobia.

Do you actually think that womens’ rights in Iran are upheld as they should be?

I just had this conversation with my therapist where I said I don’t think that I’m necessarily depressed, but am being acted upon by the men who move only in dimly lit halls and determine my future for me, and I feel distant from others, and don’t do enough fun things. And she was like, yeah, probably.

I was driving through western Washington near Idaho recently, scrolling through the radio to see what they had going on out there, and the song literally went “find you a girl who loves her daddy, and talkin bout babies makes her happy” likeeee cmon this is straight up Christian white nationalism dog-whistle, let us be honest with ourselves.

I love Lucinda Williams

Bruh when I first got my computer the first thing I did after getting a browser was install AdBlock except it was a virus site posing as adblock. I feel so dumb right now. I think I need to just pay someone to sit with me for an hour and teach me computer basics. It feels like I missed a step and everyone knows what’s going on but me

Without those, what can you recommend to someone who is not tech-savvy but willing to learn?

The world really isn’t built for people on the outside of the bell curve. I have a 4’10" mom and a 6’7" ex and they had so many things they complained about that I never even thought about because I’m 5’6", so the normalest height possible. Your solutions make sense

Genuinely this is something you should see a doctor about. A calf cramp once in a while doesn’t say that much about underlying pathology but if your jaw is cramping to that extent you should talk to someone. There are treatments for TMJ disfunction.

I saw a mosquito in my vicinity recently so I gotta do what I gotta do

You’ve never gotten a charley horse? It’s not at all like a period cramp, very sudden and exquisitely painful, and quickly resolved.

YES flex that foot! Just grab it with your hands and dorsiflex it hard, and it resolves quickly.

You need to kidnap him and take his place

3 syllable first name. Meadowlark is lovely

I will not in the future do anything that I will feel ashamed of.
